    Legendary rock band Guns N’ Roses will make stop in South Africa on their Not In This Lifetime Tour, later this year. The band will be performing one show at the FNB Stadium in Johannesburg on 29 November 2018.

    Guns N' Roses to tour South Africa for the first time

    The Not In This Lifetime Tour has 13 stadium shows lined up across Europe; festival headline slots at Download Festival UK, France and Spain, Italy’s Firenze Rocks, and Belgium’s Graspop Metal Meeting. They are also playing seven dates across Indonesia, The Philippines, Malaysia, Taiwan, China, and the United Arab Emirates.

    Produced by Live Nation, the first European leg of the Not In This Lifetime Tour sold over one million tickets in 2017, becoming the year’s most successful tour. Since it kicked off in 2016, the band has performed 149 shows to over 5,200,000 fans around the world.

    Guns N’ Roses's members are Axl Rose (vocals, piano), Duff McKagan (bass), Slash (lead guitar), Dizzy Reed (keyboard), Richard Fortus (rhythm guitar), Frank Ferrer (drums), and Melissa Reese (keyboard).

    Following the group’s 1985 formation, Guns N’ Roses injected unbridled, unrivalled, and unstoppable attitude into the burgeoning Los Angeles rock scene. The spirit went on to captivate the entire world with the release of their 1987 debut Appetite for Destruction - the best-selling US debut ever, moving 30 million copies globally. In 1991, the seven-time platinum Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II occupied the top two spots of the Billboard Top 200 upon release.

    Over the course of the past decade, Guns N’ Roses has performed sold-out shows and headlined festivals worldwide following the critically acclaimed release of 2008’s RIAA platinum-certified Chinese Democracy.
